    Keep the 79. You could almost see a tear in your eye when you were talking about selling it. She has a place in your heart, you'll regret it if you sell her. Awesome video too 🤙

    Bakes, epic content as always. DO NOT SELL THE 79!!! I think most every one agrees that you need to keep it if you can. You will definitely miss it if you sell it.

    I was towed from happy valley about 15 years ago. My 80 shit the bed, I was picked up from about 5 km north of happy valley, then when the flat top hit the soft stuff at rainbow, it bogged down and burnt out a clutch. The 80 on a flatop bogged at rainbow with a flogged clutch was then recovered by a big truck. The 80 was then delivered to my local mechanic in Brisbane. RACQ paid the whole bill. SO I guess what I am saying is its probably my fault they wont tow you from fraser anymore.

    You can pre pay $150 to Fraser Island towing before you get on the island as like an insurance policy, and if you need a tow, it'll only cost the $150, not the $1850. But if you don't need a tow, you forfeit the $150.
